I don’t think there’s anybody that interprets “avant-garde” and modern classical music better than her.

[vKarl]

Her dress is remeniscent of the original Dhiagilev costumes for Rite of Spring. WOnderful.

[guillermohugocardenas]

The most joyful and lovely interpretation of this quintessential Stravinsky concert. She is not just a musician, she is an artist in the whole sense of the word.

[zacworld]

Wow. There are no words adequate enough to describe her exquisite performance. So many moods, textures, emotions and more. She truly feels the music in each moment. What an absolutely remarkable performance.

Patricia Kopatchinskaja plays this piece with such dynamic involvement in every note it is simply breathtaking to witness...not only that, of course... Her exquisite technique and tremendous insight into Stravinsky's intention makes this about as exciting as Stravinsky can possibly be! OMG! WOW! and thank you, Patricia!

[raoultak]

This wonderful concerto suites her perfectly....look at the "kick" Kopatchinskaja is having playing it. That's a feast to look at....beautiful. Kopatchinskaja is a very gifted violinist.

[berniewalasavage]

Here via her interpretation of the Ligeti Violin Concerto cadenza clip. Subtle humor and power in how she performs. Just going to definitively say that Kopatchinskaja is my favorite living violinist.

[georgecarter]

Patricia K. was born to play the Stravinsky Violin Concerto! Phenomenal!

[nigelhaywood]

Oh my God! Was this piece always that good and I'd never realized before?

[jjjuiliano]

The concertmaster is in love with her.

[vegancrabcakes]

To me this is the definitive performance of this concerto.

[IIImobiusIII]

Wow, how can I not have known about this woman? Was that not utter perfection?

[davidmayhew]

Stravinsky would have loved this passionate reading. Just incredible!

[intervalkid]

I heard of her first when I heard her "Tzigane" I enjoyed the extremely different interpretation of it yet having heard others so many times I preferred the more usual interpretations. However, since I have not heard this piece before and therefore not become accustomed to any range of interpretation, it is quite marvelous. Quite an expressive and spirited performance.

[erikdegruyter]

Concerto played with inspiration. Bravo!  Stravinsky's concerto should be performed more often.

[dpkroon]

what a fantastic 3rd movement!!....or rather.... the whole concerto is fantastic!!...she's a breath of fresh air for sure!!

[eagleear]

Kopatchinskaja, Orozco-Estrada, Frankfurt Radio Symphony and Stravinsky. An outstanding combination.

[andreahaubmann]

love her and her way to "play" music! Thanks a lot!!!

[raoultak]

And this concerto is a phenomenal tribute to Strawinsky.
